CUSTOM: Shooting Stars

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Shooting Stars:

small ships and crash/catapult launched interceptors
all of the following vessels/interceptors/fighters are able to be carried 
as ship's boats by the larger vessels or by Sky Fortresses and other 
"carriers". Shooting Stars typically have a base Man Class of C-D and a 
base SR of 3 irrespective of type of helm. Available air is equal in 
weeks to max. number of crw times tonnage.

The Shooting Star era has given rise to many Gigant Weaponnes, ie giant 
versions of normal melee weaponry to be used by the humanoid Shooting Stars.
The tonnage/weaponry restrictions are overcome with external weapon pods 
on many vessels of these classes.

Each hull is composed of a combination of hardwood, ceramic barding and 
metal superstructure with a thin skin of foil and wooden prestressed 
timbers and guidance flukes, wings or control surfaces as appropriate.

The Hulls are able to be fitted with a variety of PsiHelms, BardHelms, 
Arcane Helms or Furnaces as well as Dynamoes of Flying and more esoteric 
planet-specific propulsion methods. Spheres and Saucers have even been 
known to be towed by domesticated space beasts able to generate their own 
warp envelope, planar travel portals or spelljamming field.

Man-Ga = giant suit of armour resembling a humanoid tank. Weaponry is 
carried externally as giant versions of humanoid melee weaponry or ranged 
weaponry.

Mek-Ha = specialised form of "home brew" Juggernaut Golem, able to assume 
two forms - that of a Man-Ga or that of a terrestrial vehicle or steed of 
some sort such as a watergoing ship, war wagon or war elephant.
Each form has the same characteristics but not the same move rate as the
Man Class and move will vary depending on whether or not the craft is in 
space or planetside.

Detailed stats on each Hull are available on request.
